Tiny Balls

Went to the canal this morning for a change. I was hoping to see damselflies but was out of luck. Perhaps it's too early in the year or perhaps the early morning just wasn't warm enough.

Poking my macro lens around in the undergrowth I found this tiny fly apparently kicking these bulbs of dew off the grass. I watched him knock three or four to the ground.

His body is about 3mm long but you can see him less small for a bit more detail.

More macro.
